Windjammer. Just the name is cool. It carries with it a spirit of adventure, history, far-away places, grace and power. Why didn't my parents name me that?
In case you missed it in the last post, this is Neil Young's boat. I think I saw him under the tarp waving at me. Either it was him or a seagull.
Painting larger pieces on location is so energizing. If it weren't for all the heavy equipment to haul for half a mile, I'd do it all the time. The amazing thing is this took only fifteen minutes longer than the 11x14 of a few days ago.....just used a larger brush. I like the way this turned out....but if I did it again I would....
Never tried one this big in the field! Great painting Darrell! It's got a freshness that I love in a plein air painting.
